TENNESSEE @ SOUTH CAROLINA- South Carolina 27-6
SOUTH CAROLINA- Coming off the bye, Steve Spurrier said he would stick with quarterback Stephen Garcia, and Garcia did not disappoint. He led the Gamecocks in an opening scoring drive and threw for a total of 139 yards and added another touchdown pass to his statistics late. The running game also flourished against Tennessee as the Cocks combined for a total of 101 yards. Gamecock defenders had a field day against the non-existant Tennessee defense by forcing three turnovers. The win puts the South Carolina Gamecocks at bowl eligibility. The schedule continues to get tough as they must face Arkansas next week and go TO FLORIDA in two weeks. But today, the Gamecocks dominated and have high hopes for the remainder of the season.
TENNESSEE- Tennessee’s struggles continued as they combined for only 200 total yards for the game and 34 rushing yards. The Volunteers continually made mistakes as they fumbled twice and threw one interception. Forcing the defense into bad positions, the Gamecocks capitalized against an exhausted defensive unit of Tennessee. The Vols were shut out in the first fourty minutes and tact on their lone touchdown when the game was already out of reach. This is now the 6th loss for the Tennessee Volunteers. They can’t really salvage the season and probably Phil Fulmer will likely lose his job due to this season’s unmet expectations. Tennessee gets to play Wyoming for homecoming…a easy win, but its too little too late for this season of woes for the Vol Nation.
